The Typical Mac
User

Some art works go the extra mile
in delivering a powerful and timeless digital shock art message. The Typical
Mac User is one such art work. The work depicts a man carrying a spatular and wrestling with a stuffed doll. It is bewildering and yet mindless to the viewer. The work explores the relationship between
consumerist fetishism and sexual fetishism. It draws upon influences as
diverse as Kafka and Marx in fearlessly examining how what starts out as
vision soon becomes corrupted into a carnival of power, leaving only a consumerist
hangover. The viewer is left with an epitaph for the broken dreams of a
generation.
